Then flash recovery, you should be able to do it threw Rom Manager on the market. Which will need superuser. Flash the recovery, I recommend doing a backup, then install this rom,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=934721
by after it downloading, hit it and click rom manager.
Select wipe everything.
Then you will need to install gapps from the same place you got the rom. This will give you google apps. Enjoy!

ROM Manager

Hi guys,
Which phone model do I select when ROM manager asks me to choose from a list of devices?
Thanks
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
Don't install it. Some person wasn't able to boot after installing that. Afaik the Amon_RA recovery ported for the P500 has basically all that you need for flashing ROMs and doing backups.
Ok then is there anyway I can flash a kernel directly on my phone?

Q. Please help me overclock/install a rom/kernel on my phone!
A. See Quick guide to installing ROMs/kernels for newbies. If you just want to overclock, install just a kernel.
Q. How to root my official GB?
A. If you already have a custom recovery, then flash this zip. Then download busybox installer from the market and install busybox. If you don't have custom recovery, then follow the instructions here.

Blurry CWM after udate

I updated to the latest version of CWM on my Photon and all of a sudden my Recovery is blurry running version 5.0.2.7. Has anyone else had these problems? Or found a solution?
I posted same in app and theme section
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
I see three options for Photon which did you pick do we don't pick same one or can try other two to see which works also are you unlocked stock cm7 sorry for the 20 questions just want to be sure
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
bump.
Do I need to go all the way back to stock and re-root/unlock?
I just flashed cwm zip via ROM manager and it fixed issue
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Same here blurry recovery after using ROM manager emailed Dev hopefully gets sorted out thats probably what description meant by generic support meaning in other words not fully working yet lol
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
I used cmd and flashed .img file from scratch; everything works again. I'm sure a update is probably on the way until then I'll wait. I think jokerax11 is updating cm9 today hopefully to beta keeping.

How do you flash it through rom manager? I'm trying to help my brother out in another state so I can't do it for him. I did mine through fastboot so I haven't messed with rom manager yet.
just have him search xda for cwm 5.0.2.7 its a zip file so he can flash from the app.
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
Actually ...ummmm. That didn't work once I tried it.
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
i went all the way back to stock to be safe. but now all is well i just wont update it
Yeah...just had to reflash the CWM using the fastboot cmd method...I'd really like to try the CWM Touch Recovery once availble..that'd be SIIICK..

[Q] Can someone help a Noob in need?

Can someone guide me to a site that I can download a stock rom zip file? I need it to restore my phone back to factory. Running cm7 right now with a back up that wont restore. Any help will be much appreciated and thanks in advance.
What phone do you have?

Thanks for you're response was beginning to think I'd get no help. I have a lg-e739 or lg my touch 4g. Stick ROM I'd gingerbread 2.3.4. Same kernel as cm7 if I'm not mistaken. I'm a noob

Additionally, should I have wiped my data/cache and dalvik cache when installing a new ROM?

Yes, it is highly recommended.

How to install cm9 on sgs2 gingerbread?

Just a question. There are numerous sites on the internet that tells you how to install cm9 on sgs2. Others say that you dont need to flash a leaked ics. Others need you to install . Please help thanks.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Go by the guide on CM9 website. I played it safe and flashed the tar version via PDA in odin. Once that's installed you can then update to latest nightly. I've never had any issues with that process. All the best.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
So sir did you install first a leaked ics or not? Thanks
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Erm not sure I'm a bit of a flasher- holic. More than likely I was on a 4.0.4 based custom rom. If you do full wipes and format system then flash via odin I'm sure you will be fine as that's what I did. Please read CM9 guide though.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I went from stock GB to CM9 nightly without any problem
Well done mate
